Chapter 159
Three days later, the Empress Dowager had her birthday.

Xu Ruqing got up early in the morning, and Zhiqu grabbed her out of bed before dawn and sat down in front of the dressing table, washing, making up, braiding her hair, dressing... She closed her eyes and let Zhiqu complete the whole process for herself.

Su Yichen also got ready early in the morning. The carriage stopped at the gate of Yelange, waiting for Xu Ruqing to come out.

With a "squeak" the door opened, and Xu Ruqing was helped out by Zhiqu.

To be honest, Su Yichen was amazed the moment he saw Xu Ruqing coming out.

Compared with the simple elegance of the past, today she is dressed brightly and charmingly. The goose-yellow water gauze skirt and the snow-white fox velvet wrap are finally visible with a little powder on her face. The light makeup adds to her exquisite facial features. All the advantages are played to the extreme.

Su Yichen stretched out his hand and invited: "Let's go, it's getting late, we should enter the palace."

Xu Ruqing hesitated for a while, and finally gave him his hand, allowing him to gently pull himself up.

Chen Shi, the palace.

The birthday banquet was held in the imperial garden of the imperial palace, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going, most of whom were ministers and family members working in the palace.

"If you're bored, let the servant girl lead you around. I'm going to meet someone, and I'll be back soon."

"it is good."

This was Xu Ruqing's first visit, and she was supposed to walk around.

The imperial palace is very large and luxurious, with red walls and green tiles, rich men and Luo Qi... However, it is still different from the TV dramas I have seen in my previous life, that is, it is too rich and gorgeous. The kind that can't be acted out!

"This is King Wei's concubine, Prime Minister Xu's daughter-in-law, Xu Ruqing, right?"

Hearing this, Xu Ruqing turned around and looked at the woman behind her. She looked familiar to him, but he couldn't remember when he had seen her.

The woman is twenty-six years old, but she is well maintained and looks like she is only in her early twenties. She is wearing a bright yellow scarf and has a phoenix crown and red tassels on her head. It is not difficult to recognize that she is the newly established queen last year. The Lord of the Sixth Palace, Zhao Mingzhu and Empress Zhao.

"My wife, Xu Ruqing, pay my respects to the empress."

"Head up."

Xu Ruqing raised her head slowly after hearing the words.

"Well, it's really stunning, no wonder my God of War in Dongyuan Kingdom only favors you."

"The queen's words are serious, and the minister's wife is ashamed."

"Hmph, what is there to be ashamed of? It is a fact that His Royal Highness King Wei only has you as a woman. Why are you pretending to be noble in front of me?"

Xu Ruqing: "..."

Don't worry about pretending or not, but empress, this is my family business, are you being too lenient? !

Xu Ruqing didn't dare to answer, so she had to say yes.

"You and I haven't seen each other for a long time, come on, come with me to the back garden."

"Empress, the prince ordered his wife to wait here. If the minister leaves, I'm afraid the prince will not find his concubine when he comes back..."

Before Xu Ruqing finished speaking, Empress Zhao's eyes turned cold.

"What? My palace's words are not as effective as those of His Royal Highness Wei Wang? You, a concubine, dare to defy my palace?"

"My wife dare not."

"Don't dare? I think you are very daring! If you don't obey me again, don't blame me for teaching you a lesson for His Royal Highness King Wei! Come here!" Zhao Mingzhu was sure that Xu Ruqing didn't dare to resist, and he was very good at her My son bosses me around.

Heh, who doesn't know that Xu Ruqing is a doormat?This was the case when he was in the Xiangfu. After marrying King Wei, his temperament changed drastically because he thought he had someone to support him. It seemed that he finally had a little temper.In her Zhao Mingzhu's eyes, it was just a fox pretending to be a tiger, no matter how powerful she Xu Ruqing was, wouldn't she have to wag her tail obediently under her majesty?

Xu Ruqing couldn't bear it anymore, this Empress Zhao was clearly here to find fault with her.

"Empress, please pay attention to your words. The courtier's wife is the official wife of the King of Wei, not a concubine. But you, the queen, have had the opportunity to rise from a noble concubine to the queen's throne since the queen was born. Could it be that you have been a concubine these years It’s been a long time, so you also think that other people came out of the dust like you?”

"What?!" Zhao Mingzhu's face changed suddenly, and she couldn't believe what she heard.

"Xu Ruqing, do you dare to say it again?!"

"Even if the minister says it ten thousand times, it's the same. The empress's hearing will not deteriorate at such a young age. She should be able to hear clearly."

"Why do you say that about me? Do you know that just based on your words, I can let you die without a place to bury you!"

Xu Ruqing's words are true. Before becoming a queen, she was just the most inconspicuous of the three thousand beauties of Emperor Yanqian, and the reason why Emperor Yanqian made her queen was just to pick a weak persimmon, and her natal family was not strong. , can't restrain him!
Her superior position is not open and aboveboard. She has been ridiculed by those people many times in the past year. Everyone said that she is not worthy of virtue, and her identity has always been a thorn in her heart that can never be removed.

"If the empress wants to execute the servants, please feel free to do so, but I have to remind you that the king of Wei is the same generation as the emperor. He is the only king with a different surname except for the Long family, and even the current princes should respect me. Aunt Huang. The empress is now saying that she wants to execute me. Has the empress thought about what to bear for the consequences?"

Zhao Mingzhu was extremely angry, when did this bitch become so eloquent?

"Xu Ruqing, you are so courageous!"

"Come on, arrest this bitch!"

As soon as the order was given, several imperial guards rushed up and surrounded Xu Ruqing.

"This king heard that someone is going to take the princess away, it seems to be true." Su Yichen's voice sounded in time.

Zhao Mingzhu was obviously startled: "Wei Wang, why are you here?"

"Naturally, I will come to see how the queen will deal with this king's woman."

Zhao Mingzhu choked, she knew she couldn't offend Su Yichen, so she could only pour dirty water on Xu Ruqing: "It was she who provoked me first, and I just scolded her a few words."

"Teaching people also requires the use of the imperial guards? The queen treats everyone as a fool? Besides, Xu Ruqing belongs to this king. Even if you want to train, only this king has the right. Where do you have the courage to be an outsider?"

"You!" The queen choked and was too angry to speak.

Then his expression became sad: "You actually contradicted me for such a woman, have you forgotten the relationship between us? Could it be that we..."

"Queen, please respect yourself." Su Yichen interrupted her coldly.

Zhao Mingzhu stopped speaking in time, but she couldn't bear the tone in her heart: "What's so good about this woman, she likes the eldest prince, not you, and she even betrayed you, have you forgotten all of this?"

Su Yichen narrowed his eyes.

He gathered his internal strength with both hands, and lifted Zhao Mingzhu up effortlessly. Zhao Mingzhu was stuck in the neck and suspended in the air, unable to move.

"boom!"

With a light wave of her big hand, she was thrown several feet away, hit her head on the ground, and fainted.
